  1. A converted rural property on the quiet edge of Essen, this is the kind of polished restaurant where certain tables look straight into the kitchen. Erika Bergheim, who came up through serious fine dining, runs the stoves and cooks in a seasonal, internationally minded style. You can go à la carte or take the set menu, with individual courses available either way. The wine list is long and thoughtfully assembled, and the terrace is a genuine reason to pick a sunny day.

    One honor, in evidence:
